Description

Bioweingut Diwald Frühroter Veltliner 2022

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Frühroter Veltliner from Wagram. The vines stem from theirr own selection of up to 60-year-old vines from the Diebsnest, Eisenhut and Altweingarten sites.

A coincidental crossing between Rotem Veltliner and the Silvaner, there should be no more than 400 hectares of it grown, mainly in Wagram.

Taste Profile: In cooler years, our Frühroter Veltliner is floral and fruit-driven, while the warmer vintages become “darker” and offer more spice. The Frühroter Veltliner is always a rounder, softer wine with gentle acidity and low alcohol. Decidedly drinkable and lean – that’s how we like it.

Winemaking Process: The grapes are hand-picked, macerated for a short amount of time and then allowed to ferment spontaneously in stainless steel tanks before maturing on the lees
